This is a video in my new Core Concepts series -- designed to provide students and lifelong learners a brief discussion focused on one main concept from a classic philosophical text and thinker.
This Core Concept video focuses on Kant's Groundwork for the Metaphysics of Morals, sec. 3 and discusses the distinction and relation between three key faculties of the human being, which Kant terms reason, understanding, and sense.

Thank you for making me understand Kantian philosophy. Up until i watched your videos, i thought Kant was beyond me. With each video the veil of illusion is lifted. Your work is truly appreciated!

To explain Kant’s TOK, does phenomena/noumena world come first or sensibility/understand of the mind first?

@GregoryBSadler Жыл бұрын

Neither. Or either. Depends on the presentation.

It'd be great to see a few core concept videos adressing the Critique of Pure Reason. Thanks for making them, by the way

I didn't plan on watching this now, but I was thinking about Kant, Hume, the differences between reason and logic, and between evidence and proof, and metaphysics and empiricism. I figured I ought to watch this to make sure I understood Kant correctly before I decide to attack his ideas - don't wanna be strawman'ing him. I'll need to sit on this longer, but I'll note Etienne Gilson contends Kant misconstrues the aforementioned issues (and the ones you mention).

Daniel Jackson logic might be an affective sense according to Kant in this analysis?

Hey, for my Art Theory exam, I need to know the basics of 1. Kritik der reinen Vernunft (1781) 2. Kritik der praktischen Vernunft (1788) 3. Kritik der Urteilskraft (1790). Have you made any videos about this? Or about Kant's relation to art/beauty? Greetings from Belgium :) ps you're videos have been super helpful!!

@@GregoryBSadler You're one of the best philosophy teachers I've encountered, and definitely one of the best teachers I know. Such a privilege and joy to have your lectures uploaded online for everyone. Your videos are your mark on the world, your great and empowering legacy. I've been following you for years. Every video I have seen has been quality, and full of substance, doing justice to the tradition of Western Philosophy, and philosophy everywhere. You fulfill Leonardo da Vinci's maxim, "the ultimate sophistication is simplicity" in the way you break down complex and challenging philosophical concepts. We appreciate you! Sincerely, The people of the internet

Could reason influence understanding, restructure it and even change categories? if that were so, the very structure of experience would be subject to it. and we could take the next step, like FItche, and fall into a subject who puts his own pressuppositions

Well, then we're no longer with Kant, right?

@@GregoryBSadler Heidegger, in the kanbook, tries to think something freer, tries to put more power to spontaneity in general, in the imagination. I don't know if it would be possible, in Kant himself, to understand the whole transcendental structure as not fixed, as capable of being recreated, (and I don't know if Heidegger thought this way in that book.) in sociology, neo-Kantians like Durkheim tend to think that the transcendental structure is shaped by the social. But that seems to me to lead to idealism like Fitch.

Free but not compelled by ideas unless there is a relationship to the "absolute". I'm guessing.

I just had a similar discussion to this a few weeks ago. But what was discussed was do animals have consciousness. I argued that there was no evidence to suggest either yes or no, but the other person claimed they did have consciousness (he argued that therefore eating animals was wrong). His proof was animals being able to communicate with hand signs (I wasn't convinced) and other things like animals feeling distress (I wasn't convinced by this either). So do you think this question is in the philosophical domain or the scientific domain? Science doesn't seem to have much info on this.

@GregoryBSadler 7 жыл бұрын

I think both philosophy and science can contribute.

Sir , I'm not able to understand the function of reason in determining what is a good will and what is not . Can you please make me understand this paragraph :- In the natural constitution of an organic being ,that 8s ,of one contrived for the purpose of life,let us take it as a principle that in it no organ is to be found for any end unless it is also the most appropriate to that end and the best fitted for it . Suppose now for being possessed of reason and a will the real purpose of nature were his - reservation,his welfare,or in a word his happiness . In that case nature would have hit on a very bad arrangement by choosing reason in the creature to carry out this purpose . For all the actions he has to perform with this end in view ,and the whole rule of his behaviour ,would have been mapped out for him far more accurately by instinct;and the end in question could have maintained far more surely by instinct ; than it ever can be by reason. Thank you.
